Blue 146 is interesting if its true, hope it comes in silver trim

Silver/platinum would make sense. I would like to see that, too. Would also like to see the return of the Bordeaux.

Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing

Thanks for the pictures! To me it will be a 1 to 3 MB pens this year: Writters (grey), probably the Pavarotti and the Masters. Would love the Skeleton but out of my budget, I would have to limito my pen shopping to just this pen for the entire year.

Would love to see pictures of the Heritage ball pen. I would like to have a ball point to match my Heritage FP.

The Tolstoy would have been a perfect opportunity for a 139-style WE (like the Dumas or the Hemingway). For the titan of the great Russian literary tradition, it would have been only fitting.

Too many pens; too little writing.

The regular GC Warhol corpus is designed with several logos of the famous Campbell's tin.

This FPs top is designed as an unopened tin.

Looks cool. Great job - Hamburg!

I eventually have the chance to view the pens in real during the Black & White Weeks. Firstly I want to share the WE 2015 Leo Tolstoy. It is not 'grey' as what we saw in pictures of this thread.

 

WE 2015 Leo Tolstoy - Cap: dark blue resin (like the JFK SE, or even darker), Barrel: silver plated with hammered spots, Cone: mixed-paint pattern in sky blue colour.

Tolstoy 1868 version - Cap: blue lacquer, Barrel: champagne colour, Cone: dark brown timber with a green gemstone on top.

 

As we were not allow to take photos, I could only modify the pictures of this thread to show how they actually looked :P :P

I think it is the FIRST WE that has another , smaller edition (the 1868 Tolstoy). Another way to drive us crazy.....

Indeed the 1868 version is four times the price of its own brother WE 2015, and even more expensive than the POA & Great Character :yikes: :yikes:

I dont know how I feel about the sky blue swirled end piece. The rest of the pen would be an automatic purchase for me.

In order to appreciate the sweet, you must truly taste the bitter....

I like it, but wish they would stay consistent and have metal caps with metal bodies.

I'm a huge fan of the vintage inspired era of the WE's (1992-2000). I'm still waiting for another one based on the 139! it seems ever since 2000 or so MB has been moving away from that and producing more and more eclectic pens. This one is certainly one of them, looks like nothing else. I'll reserve judgement until I see it in real life...

The WE is $1,000 and the 1868 is $4,150.

That took a turn for the worse. :unsure:

 

 

Hemingway, Christie, Poe, Proust, Schiller, Kafka, Fitzgerald, Wilde, Dostoyevsky, Faulkner

 

Medici, Octavian, Morgan, Copernicus, Charlemagne, Friedrich II

 

 

 

Why has it gone so wrong?

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
